Elmer Thomas Asks Senate Investigate Pearson Source; Bradley Warns of Budget Cuts : Oklahoma's WASHINGTON surly senator . "Cotton Elmer" Thomas was so burned up after this column, corrected his version of General Bradley's secret, testimony ' on the possibility of war that Thomas has now ordered a senate subcommittee to Investigate: ' The subcommittee is supposed to find out. how this column got General Bradley's secret testimony. Senator Thomas had reported to the press that the chief of staff was not worried about war with Russia. To: keep the record straight, however,1 this "column gave a account of Bradley's! remarks, which differed considerably fromi Senator Thomas's version. Following this,- "Cotton Elmer" named three senators ; to investigate - this columnist Joe ' O'Mahoney of Wyoming, Willis , Robertson of Virginia and Homer Ferguson of Michigan.. They are now checking on all the secret transcripts to find which one; might have slipped into Drew Pearson's hands. What stumps the investigators, however, is that the column also quoted what GeneraI Bradley: said : which doesn't even appear In- - the stenographic tran- , scripts : , So far the subcommittee suspects a certain Republican senator of leaking the story to Fear- son, but I can assure the subcommittee that its chief suspect wasn't even present during Brad- - ' ley's testimony. Meanwhile, this column serves notice that any time a responsible official As misquoted on any- -, thing the. public is entitled to know about, the column will do its best to get the true facts. I I MORE TO INVESTIGATE What Bradley said, , summed up briefly, was that Russia won't have he industrial capacity nor the atomic stockpile to start a war for t least two years. However, he warned that Russia is a bully nation and might get careless about whom she pushes around. He also refused to predict what Russia might do after two years. General Bradley also made other, significant observations the public is entitled to know but which this column didn't have space to print In the story now being investigated. So here is some more for the Investigators to investigate. Sen. Burnet Maybank of South Carolina ques- 13 finnri RmHIpv aharnlv fin wwthatr H .'000,000,000 budget was an absolute minimum. "I certainly would hate to see the figure become any smaller;" replied Bradley. Then he declared flatly: "This amount was determined before we learned that Russia had the atomic i bomb." He assured, however, that he was willing-tgo along with a $13,000,000,000 budget for the ; sake of economy. "In other words," suggested Massachusetts' Sen.

Then Bradley explained: "The ; eventual strength of our country depends upon its in- dustrial capacity. We must not destroy that by spending too much; from year to year. So if I came here recommending $30,000,000,000 or $40- ,000,000,000 for defense, you should start searching lor a new chairman- of the 'joint chiefs of '.'.'.

"But I feel that we are going to achieve the necessary forces to prevent a disastrous attack- from crip--. pllng this nation. I also believe that we 'will be able to win a war if it comes."

Must Oversee Dole Our dilemma will start only if we are asked to aid our one-tiChinese friends. Then what shall we say? Personally I am opposed to any recognition of the Communist regime so long as any non-Comunists continue to fight against it. I favor giving further aid to the Nationalists on Formosa and Hainan Islands as long as they can hold out. There is always the chance of a military miracle. Yet I do not think we can refuse, under all circumstances to send food to starving China just because the Communists have grabbed it. We can however, put a string on any offer we make. We can insist that all supplies sent be accompanied by American distributors who will see that the food gets to all hungry Chinese, and Communists alike. Even so let us not forget this will weaken us politically. But it will strengthen us morally by enabling us to remain true to our convictions. On the other hand, if Mao and his friends refuse to let our aid be distributed by our own people, that will show that he wants to give American food exclusively to his Chinese friends at the expense Tse-tun- Li-sa- me -- m .

Bulldozers and other heavy equipment really went to town all thrqugh the canyon while th work was in progress. Trees and shrubbery, untouched since the coming of the white man, went down in the path of the construction crews. What they did to the primitive canyon landscape was enough to make nature lovers cry their eyes out.
